Chapter 855

Sophia proceeded to tell Matilda the same reason she told Ian—that Logan was drunk and asleep. In
response, Matilda replied, “Oh, I see. But why would he drink in the day? What’s wrong with him?”

After hearing Matilda’s question, Sophia only smiled in silence as she didn’t know how to put it to her.
Soon, Matilda sat next to her and asked, “So, what’re we going to do now? Just sit here all day?”

Sophia looked up at the ceiling and sighed. “That’s a good question. I have no idea what we could do
to kill time.”

Not long after that, Matilda seemingly figured out a way to kill time, so she beckoned to one of the staff
and said, “Let’s play poker. Come and join us.”

Sophia helplessly stared at Matilda. “You’re quite the gambler, aren’t you?”

Matilda shot a gaze at Ian and asked, “Care to join us?”

At the same time, Ian was just done with his meal. “Sure, why not?”

Meanwhile, Sophia was beginning to think that playing poker was, in fact, not a bad idea, or they would
be bored to tears while waiting for Logan to wake up. Before heading over to the game room, Sophia
told another staff to check on Logan. That dude has been out like a dead man since the moment he
was carried to his room. I doubt he is going to wake up anytime soon.

As the four of them began to play their game, the atmosphere was instantly lightened up. Shortly after
the first round started, Sophia received a call from John, which she didn’t bother looking at before
answering it because she was too engrossed in the poker game.



Nonetheless, John didn’t say a single word after the call connected until Sophia called out to him. “Are
you there, John?”

At that moment, Ian was stunned as he paused and gazed at her with a glacial look on his face. It
turned out that John had been away from his office for some official business and was planning to go
straight home after that. Thus, he was calling Sophia to ask her whether she had any cravings so that
he could buy them on the way.

Sophia responded with an affirmative hum. “Oh, I’m now at Logan’s club. Ian is back, and we’re
planning to eat out tonight. So, why don’t you join us?”

John was alert when he heard Ian’s name, whereupon he replied with an indifferent grunt. “I see. That’s
soon.” A few seconds later, he added, “Anyway, I’ll be on my way to meet you guys.” Sophia then put
her phone down and placed one of her cards in the center just as Ian suddenly chuckled in a
nonchalant manner.

In the meantime, Matilda shifted her gaze to Ian and said, “John’s dad and I think you should be the
one to decide on the child’s name. We all agree that you should make the call. In fact, it seems to us
that John is getting really desperate, but I told him to calm down so that he doesn’t ruin everything.”

On the other hand, Sophia only kept her eyes on her cards without looking at Matilda, knowing what
Matilda was trying to imply. While those words were meant for Ian to hear, Sophia decided it would be
best for her to play dumb since she didn’t want to put her foot in her mouth.

As soon as Matilda had her turn, she suddenly paused when she heard footsteps walking up the stairs,



yet she wasn’t alone because Ian could clearly hear that too. The next moment, Ian had his eyes glued
to the door that was left open until John showed up as both men quickly locked eyes with each other.

Soon, the two of them didn’t seem happy, although John appeared to have the upper hand in the
mental game by acting magnanimously. He then turned his attention to Sophia and stood beside her,
placing his hand on the back of the lady’s chair. “Why did you stop?”

At that time, the worker, who was playing together, volunteered to give up his place, allowing John to
participate in the game. In response, John smiled and said, “I’ll be glad to take over.”

Upon witnessing John’s reaction, a complicated look appeared on Sophia’s face as she couldn’t help
but look at Matilda, who seemingly pursed her lips at her to indicate the same feeling that she shared
with her.
